The discussions among the Knights of

board has expelled and boycotted the assem-

all Knights of Labor not TO hold any inter

1t is to be hoped that the Street and Lane
Committee, to which the question of collect
ing the garbage on Sundays has been
referred, will have the work done. AS
cleanliness is said to be next to goodness,
it cannot be objected to by those who are
opposed to work ON Sunday. Garbage and
store sweepings in the streets are objection
able on any day, but they are particularly
so on Sundays. On that day the people
present their best appearance. 1t is but
natural, therefore, that they should want
their premises and the streets and lanes to
present a clean and an attractive appear
ance. To remove the garbage and sweep
ings on Sundays imposes no additional work
on the scavenger. The matter has to be
removed and the work can be done as well
one day as another.

Another want which all of our people
realize and admit, is the need of a
morning paper of sufficient size and
ability, to foster and advance the
business and industrial interests of
the community; paper printing the
latest telegraphic dispatches and COM
pairing favorably with the dailies of
Charlotte, Danville, Raleigh, and Will
mington. A publication of this char
acter would be very important COM
ponant in our approaching season Of
prosperity, and every man in the city
would derive a benefit therefrom.
The SENTINEL will have more to say
on this subject again.
Now let the good work begin. in
earnest, and be pa 'hed with a wise
caution and prudent management,
such as will insure the confidence of
capital, and we will soon see tbs. fruits
in the rapid growth of our city and
the increased prosperity of the coun-
try around. This is a grand oppor-
tunity for Winston Salem, and we do
heartily rejoice that there is now ex
hibited such ali earnest determination
to get into the very fore front and
stay there.

stay there

The Hendersonville Times, in
timely and sensible article, from which
we make some excerpts below, offers
to our farmers some very useful sug-
gestions that if they heed will reap for
them very gratifying results.
The Times asks, what does {" boom"
mean? 1t means a sudden rise in
values-a sudden influx of strangers
bent on speculation-a sudden demand
for provisions, often at exorbitant
prices, with which to feed the hungry
multitude. 1t means wealth to those
who have surplus, whether that sur
plus be capital or labor, lands or farrn
products ; but poverty to those who
idly sit and wait for money to become
more plentiful.
The duty Of our farmer friends is
plain. Ii you would receive a part Of
the gold produced at the Boilston
mines raise something to sell. Money
will never come to you without some
thing to bring it. No matter what
that something " is, you will be none
the losers even if the boom fails to
reach us the present season. Every
dollar which you arrest here for home
raised produce is p dollar added to
the material wealth of the county,
while the money sent to foreign mark
cts is lost to us forever
We have no authority to mention
names, but are credibly informed that
before the summer is out the present
Boilston Mining Company will add
largely to their machinery and be
employing three hundred handst
What does this mean :? 1t means three
hundred families to feed-at least one
thousand people to clothe-three hun
drcd families 10 shelter and who is
prepared to help? Add to this new
company now formed and about to
open another mine On Boilston, and
you have but a faint idea of the work
to be done by the farmers OF this county
if they would keep the gold at home.
This county scarcely feeds its present
population. Farmers, go to work.
raise a surplus, and thus be prepared
to receive the benefit of " the coming
boom"
Every word fits accurately to our
own situation here in Winston. Our
population buys from other sections
butter, vegetables, and many other
things that ought to be produced
right around US. y poultry farm, a
dairy business, would pay well, and
eventually some sharp yankee viii

tiles to establish iron manufacturing
in Winston will be largely enhanced,
and our wide-awake business leaders
should be giving their attention to
preparation for this new industry.
Continuing the subject of railroads
touched upon above, Winston's future
in this respect IS unusually promising,
but we must not sit idle and await
their coming; we must exert our
every energy to hasten their approach.

The Way Co Advertise.

1t is COMMON saying in business
circles that advertising is the life of
trade, but many of the business men
who quote and believe in the maxim
know little Of the wide. .and varied
field that judicious newspaper adyerti-
sing opens to all legitimate trade.
The Philadelphia Times says: There
is as much money practically wasted
as is expended in advertising. Costly
cards, Illuminated circulars, and all
the thousand outside meth ods of ad-
vetising do some good in special cases,
but in this progressive age, when the
newspaper is read in every home the
one successful method for legitimate
business to reach legitimate custom is
by the wise employment of the news
paper.

The present stringent condition of
business cannot exist much longer.
The history of past financial depres-
sions demonstrates that an immediate
reaction is ine7itable. Already the
roseate hues of an approaching dawn
of plenty and good feeling are becom-
ing manifest in the commercial horizon.
The long drawn faces of business men
are Lit up with buoyant hopes born of
the gladstone spring time, and the
cheering prospects of increased bust
ness and more money.
Throughout the South the roar'of
prodigious boom is heard. No. land
beneath the sur has ever witnessed
the Industrial strides the old South, in
new habiliments, is taking. Her idle
fields aud waste places of a few years
ago are now teeming with a vigorous
population keenly alert to seize upon
every opportunity to utilize and de-
velop some of the God-given resources
which abound in such layishness.
No community can we'll disregard
this impulse, and lag behind in the
great renascence which is spreading
over our whole Southern country. A
people who are industrious, honest and
intelligent, with abundant resources
lying around them, cannot afford to
stand idle and wait for the boom to
strike them. A supine and apparent
ly helpless attitude, instead of exciting
sympathy, has a contrary effect.
People seeking opportunity for the
investment of capital, or places to live
will always avoid dead community.
The only hope is in the manifestation
Of proper energy.
Let us here in Winston feel the
force of this truth, and let us roll
up our sleeves, and put our shoulders
to the wheel and push the Twin-City
forward with all the vigor that is in
Winston -Salem's future never was
brighter. The booms we've had in
the past will be nothing to that one
which is already under way, and
which is coming with irresistible mo-
mentum. But we must be up and
doing. There is no time to waste il
petty personal chickering's and idle
talk.

that nine teEths of her inhabi-

story of the Gate City's endur-

1t is stated that the present tre-
mendous boom which Chattanooga
now enjoys may be traced back to a
year ago, when there was a general
demand and strong appeal from the
citizens for new opera house. The
Times, to which wide awake paper
that city owes much of the present
prosperity, began to agitate the mat.
ter, and headed subscription with
81 900, and called for thirty nine other
$1,000 subscriptions. Within two
days and half the entire amount
had been obtained with money to
spare.
This marked an epoch in the history
Of Chattanooga. The idea that $4,000
: could be raised in so short time for
an enterprise ct doubtful results, was
a revelation to the people of that city
and it indicated more strongly than
anything else could, the prosperity OF
the people and their spirit of enter,
prise. The Times was justly elated at
its work. Here were men who had
confidence in their city, and who were
willing to spend money on its possible
future. 1t inspired people with con
fidence and enthusiasm, and shortly

this city should be extended to them
at once. A gratifying boom has fol-
lowed in their wake throughout their
Southern tour, and Winston must not
let slip SO splendid an opportunity for
presenting our advantages and re-
sources to the great constituency of
Harper's Weekly.
We have in prospect the early
building Of the North Carolina Mid
land Railroad from Winston to Mocks-
vile, and the simultaneous extension
of the Northwestern Railroad from
Winston to Wilkesboro. These two
roads will contribute immeasurably to
our coming boom. The first OF these
two will not, in all likelihood, tarry
long at Mocksville, and thus the early
placing of Winston upon truck line
from Dauville to points South, is to
be anticipated. The Northwestern
road "will not stop at Wilkesboro a
day." it has been asserted, but will
extend to the rich iron mines OF Gran
berry, in Mitchell county, and thence
push onward tor more Western con
nection. Winston will be within
about 100 miles 'of Cranberry, while
Chattanooga is nearly three, hundred
miles distant. Then why should we
not bestir ourselves to secure in our
| midst the establishment IF blast furn
aces, rolling mills and iron foundries.
The coal from the comparatively un-
touched fields of Stokes, and those of
Chatham are sufficient to supply the
fuel for these enterprises.
There is to day no frst-class Besse
mer steel plant in the whole South.
The nearest approach to it is in Chat
tanooga, and the ore thus utilized is
that brought all the way over rough
mountain route, from Cranberry,
which is so much nearer Winston.
Is it not plainly apparent that capital
